Lyrics

Firewoman’s Daughter
Words & Music by Dave Nachmanoff – 1995


Your mama is a fireman, that mean’s she’s got to be away
With a little luck and a prayer or two, she’ll make it home by the end of the day
Well I know it’s a dangerous business, But it’s what she’s always wanted to do
So while your mom’s at work, putting out fires, I’m home taking care of you

CHORUS:

You’re a firewoman’s daughter
Right now that doesn’t mean too much to you
You’re a firewoman’s daughter
Maybe someday, you’ll grow up to be a firewoman too


When your mama was a little girl, she used to like to play with dolls
Doing mouth-to-mouth & CPR, she sprayed a garden house against the wall
And I know that I’ve told you the story, about how your mama saved my life
She took me down that ladder from a third floor window
And I asked if she would be my wife

(Repeat Chorus)

Well I can’t take the place of your mama, and you know I wouldn’t want to try
You’d rather have a breast than a bottle, but honey-child, don’t you cry
‘Cuz I promise you in a year or two, when you’re a little bit more grown up
I’ll take you down to see your mom at work
You’ll get a ride on a fire truck

(Repeat Chorus)
